Quicktime Junction

2006 Trolley Parade
Featuring : 31   108    396  434C     #4      The Crane    City of Manchester

This is only a preview of the eventual work.  This is a quick show
for those unable to attend the parade, and because any movememnt of some of
these cars is a rare sight.  The final version will be around 45 minutes,
with a larger collection of cars, proper narration, and some titles, and better transitions.
This is a work in progress.  
The final should look a little more like the second link, with narration added.

that they all had an interesting story to tell about their visit to Seashore.
